After Romano was fired by MD, he sent the following statement to PBW Radio about the situation. (John's statement was read by Dan & Bob on the show)

"After 18 years of dedicated service to Muscular Development Magazine, and more recently its website, the relationship that saw me rise from a mere contributor to Senior Editor has come to – as all things inevitably do - an end. However, the end was not unforeseen. My gradually eroding confidence in the manner in which business was being conducted, and the decisions that were being made, painted a very telling picture of things to come. Clearly, the direction the magazine and website are now headed counter my beliefs, not to mention those of my radio partner, and former Editor-in-Chief of the Muscular Development.com, Dave Palumbo. As you all probably know, Dave’s relationship with MD also ended today. The manner in which the end unfolded was rather unfortunate, but not unexpected. It evinced quite accurately the evolving attitude of Muscular Development.

I am very grateful to Steve Blechman for the opportunity he has afforded me over the years and I wish him and his future endeavors much success. To all my fans and loyal readers and listeners now decrying the gigantic whole I left in MD, rest assured - You ain’t seen nor heard the last of me….." - John Romano

I wonder what Romano meant when he spoke about MD going in a direction that was counter to his beliefs and aims....

Maybe BillyGuns was speaking a bit of truth when he came on here blabbing for attention not to long ago? What do Palumbo and Romano do now? What is there next move?

Does Ron extend his hand in an attempt to help up his vanquished enemies?

I think Blechman finally realized he gave those convicts too much power and pull initially and couldn't undo it and bring them down a few levels, so he let them go.

In some circles it's reffered to as a glass ceiling.

LMAO!! Except Romano didn't even put his words together that eloquently. The dude's a delusional fuck wit.
